It’s about more than music. It’s about eroding the public good for private gain. Dame Kiri Te Kanawa calls out Cardiff University’s agenda, and she’s absolutely right.
Birmingham refuse workers are standing firm in their fight. Pickets were solid. Good support from the public, the message is clear safety shouldn't be compromised for penny pinching. £3000 per week, they are paying Commissioners.
Who has the say here? ✊️🚩

#OnThisDay 1994. British Coal closed Tower Colliery in south Wales on grounds that it would be uneconomic to continue production.
239 miners raised their own funds, pledging £8,000 each from their redundancy payouts to buy the mine in January 1995.
809 people at the half marathon that was sponsored by Tata. 30 mins down the road @TataSteelUK are trying to scrap 2800 jobs. Almost 4 jobs for every runner. "Supporting the community"??
Not to mention the 10000 jobs that are indirectly at risk. Wales deserves better
Our striking @unitetheunion members at @cardiffcouncil have had enough of a toxic bullying culture and poverty pay.

But Rishi Sunak wanted it, so that’s what is important.
